    He just doesn't have the awareness of Collins. Collins would be switching and blocking shots or at least contesting with ease. I know he currently spreads the floor on offense better but still

    Damn, Hood is killing it. Time for Stotts to bench him!

    Hood seems to have picked up the intricate Blazer offense quite quickly.

    Now imagine if we had got Mirotic, good luck blitzing Dame and CJ with four shooters on the perimeter

    Turner must have compromising pics of Stotts. There is no other explanation

    I think it could be as simple as who they're playing, but also he's regressed a bit this year.

    The team needs more players who can create for themselves and that isn't Collins (also Meyers) strong suits. So far Hood has shown he can create for himself, which is a bonus.

    The blazers need a PF / C with some size 6'9 plus who can play a little D and has some nasty plus can score a little cause while Myers might be able to hit a shot he plays no defense

    Way to early, remember the first game of the year with Nik? Need more repeatable performances, not just a one time burst.

    I like Jake and Hood on the court at the same time. It works.
